IT'S RIDICULOLY FUNNY LIKE ALL OF HIS OTHER BOOKS, BUT 'S ALSO DROP AD SER AT THE SAME TIME. IT'S ABOUT A SCHOOL'S LGBT SOCIETY, 'S MEMBERS AND NOT-MEMBERS AND LOT MORE LGBTQ+ STUFF, SO BE PREPARED FOR SOME SER ISSU TO BE TACKLED. IT'S NEVER ON-THE-NOSE, BUT ALSO NOT EXACTLY SUBTLE EHER. GREEN REALLY KNOWS HOW TO PUT ALL TOGETHER A WAY BE A WELL-ROUND ENTERTAG STORY. IT HAS YOU LGHG OUT LOUD, BG YOUR NAILS, ROLLG ON THE FLOOR LGHG AND DRIVG UP THE WALL ALL THE TIME. I REALLY LOVE THE MIX OF EDY AND DRAMA. THERE'S ALSO ROMANCE AND SPENSE. ALTHOUGH 'S PRETTY OBV HOW SOME OF THE THGS WILL PLAY OUT, PECIALLY ROMANCE-WISE, SOME OF THE EVENTS REALLY UGHT ME BY SURPRISE. IT'S A REALLY GOOD MIX.THIS BOOK IS ONE OF THE BT BOOKS I'VE READ THIS YEAR. IT'S NOT ONLY ENTERTAG BUT ALSO IMPORTANT. I WISH MORE PEOPLE WOULD READ OUTSI OF THE QUEER BUBBLE.

BY SIMON JAM GREENPUBLISHED BY SCHOLASTIC, 2022FIVE STARSANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHY SIMON JAM GREEN HAS BEEN SUCH A SUCCS MASTREAM PUBLITN. THE VERY TLE OF THIS BOOK, “GAY CLUB!” IS PROBLEMATIC, AND ’S A PROBLEM ALT WH HUMOROLY AND SENSIVELY THE URSE OF THIS AMB EDY-ROMANCE-TEEN-DRAMA. LOTS OF ISSU ARE RAISED AND DISCSED BY A RANGE OF CHARACTERS WHO ARE BELIEVABLY TEENAGED, AND TOSSED EVERY-WHICH-WAY BY THE EMOTNAL TURMOIL OF BEG BOTH ADOLCENTS AND NON-STRAIGHT. BARNEY BROWN WANTS TO BE PRINT OF THE LGBTQ+ CLUB AT HIS PRIVATE-BUT-NOT-FANCY SCHOOL ENGLAND. SCE THERE ARE ONLY FOUR MEMBERS – CLUDG HIS BT IENDS MAYA AND GEE – HE FEELS PRETTY SECURE HIS PENDG ELECTN. THEN THE TROUBLE MAKER – RICH, BETIFUL BRONTE – CIS THAT SHE’LL THROW THE ELECTN OPEN TO THE ENTIRE SCHOOL, TH ENSURG HER OWN VICTORY (BEE SHE’S POPULAR, EVEN THOUGH SHE’S A VERY OUT LBIAN). I LOVE BARNEY VERY MUCH. HE’S SMART, AND MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN HE THKS, BUT HE DON’T FOC ON ANYTHG BEYOND HIS WORK AND HIS ELECTN EFFORTS. HE NEEDS HIS LGBTQ+ IENDS, BEE THIS IS WHERE HE HAS, SCE THE AGE OF 14, FELT SAFE AND ACCEPTED. MAYA, WHO IS BLACK, AND GEE, WHO IS TRANS, ARE STNCH IENDS, AND HAVE BUILT THEIR OWN LTLE TROOP OF FOOD-LOVG SEEKERS OF JTICE. BRODY, WHO IS THE MEAN GIRL OF THIS GROUP, IS ACTUALLY REALLY ADMIRABLE, EXCEPT WHEN SHE’S BEG V AND ENTLED. ADD TO THIS MIX DANNY ORLANDO, THE RICH, BETIFUL JOCK ARCHETYPE, WHO BOTH PROCLAIMS HIS STRAIGHTNS AND SEEMS ODDLY SUPPORTIVE OF BARNEY AND HIS IENDS. DANNY IS A REVELATN, BEE HE IS GENUELY A GOOD GUY, BUT IGNORANT OF THE NUANC OF BEG MARGALIZED, AND NOT ENTIRELY CLUED TO WHAT MEANS TO BE AN ALLY. THERE IS A GOOD AL OF TALK – HELPFUL, IF NFG, TALK – ABOUT LABELS, AND WHY THE TERM “GAY CLUB” REPRENTS ERASURE AS MUCH AS REPRENTS A SAFE SPACE. WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER THERE WERE VERY FEW LABELS, AND I LOVE THAT THE NFN OVER LABELS, AND THE IMPASSNED EMBRACE OR REJECTN OF THEM, BE A STRONG MOTIF THE STORY. THE BOTTOM LE HERE IS THAT BEG OTHER THAN STRAIGHT THIS WORLD ( THE US AS MUCH AS THE UK) IS STILL NOT EASY, SPE OF EVERYTHG THAT HAS HAPPENED MY LIFETIME.
